Initially (Chintu + disc) are at rest.
Suddenly chintu starts moving with v0 wrt ground.
ω=? disc

Answer
MdR2mcv0
Explanation
Solution
The system (Chintu + disc) is initially at rest, so its total angular momentum is zero. As no external torque acts on the system, angular momentum is conserved. When Chintu moves with velocity v0 (wrt ground) at radius R, his angular momentum is mcv0R. To conserve total angular momentum, the disc must rotate in the opposite direction, generating an angular momentum Idω=21MdR2ω. Equating the magnitudes of these opposing angular momenta (mcv0R=21MdR2ω) yields ω=MdR2mcv0.
Answer:
The angular velocity of the disc (ω) is MdR2mcv0.
